One blog complaing that trains are often late and that published a humorous logo of the french rail company SNCF has been censored by Typepad.

TypePad received just an email of the SNCF pretending that they had the feeling changing the logo of the SNCF into SNTR (National Company of belated trains) could be illegal. They immediately suppressed the note and later informed their customer that they had to suppress the note because they did not want to be involved in any legal matters with other companies.

If just sending an email to Six Apart is enough to remove a post that your company don’t like, what is freedom of speech for Type Pad customers?

Why companies don’t try to discuss with bloggers? and why Six Apart doesn’t know better about blogging?
